How long will fresh truffles keep in freezer?

For simplicity I thought to freeze fresh truffles in zip lock in freezer. I have eaten after a week and thought it was fine. Has anyone tried it and can say how long can you keep it like this?

I've stored mushrooms dried for over 2 years in a cupboard with no noticeable deteriorating of quality.
I would guess that quality would be maintained indefinitely if frozen in an airtight container.

If they're fresh, and you freeze them, they will probably not thaw out well. Dry them out first if you must store them.

It was perfectly fine for me eating them. The question is if they can be preserved fresh in the freezer in a zip lock for a few months.

Freezing without drying will destroy some of the actives in your product, dry them first.

Have I ever told you how much I enjoy reading you answers to stuff like this? So deadpan.
so yeah, in case we still aren't clear, do not freeze fresh mushrooms, in any form.

Dry them cracker dry.. Put in a mason jar or something air tight with desiccant packet / oxygen absorber. I do that plus put in the fridge.

So I assume that means, they will lose potency in freezer. Thats a shame, since I have them now in the freezer for 2 weeks, and so I don´t know how much I should consume... O.K. At least I won´t do it again.

If they were fresh, and put in the freezer, they will come out pretty gross. If they are dry, and in the freezer, there will be no water to freeze and turn to goo, and they will be fine.

I have tried them 2 weeks after freezing. They were completely fine in potency I think. Taste was completely fine too. So that makes me think that freezing is O.K. at least for short time. Without going into the hassle of drying it. Especially that for me it is difficult drying since I can be noticed.
